What is this? Some Volkswagen cars (Tiguan, Sharan, CC) have a small part in the airbag system that may break. If it breaks, the system might think there is a crash when there isn’t one.
What's happening? Volkswagen has fixed the problem. They will replace the broken part for free. This is to stop the airbag from turning on by mistake.
Does this affect me? If you own one of these cars in Germany, Denmark, Croatia, Luxembourg, Malta, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, or Slovakia, this could affect you.
What should I do? Take your car to a Volkswagen dealer to have the part checked and fixed. Ask your dealer or a mechanic for help.
